Chapter 559: Expanding the army and recuperating

At this time, Li Yunlong and others led their troops to a place near the east side of Yuxia Guang to hide and rest, after all, the troops were marching in a hurry to hide north, and the march was long, and they also needed to rest at this time.

The Yuxia Pass is located in the southeast of Pingshun County 50 kilometers, the Ming Dynasty in the Jiajing period after the extermination of Chen Qing's rebel army here set up a pass.

And Yuxia Pass is also called the wind gate, here the mountains are stacked, the peaks stand upright, the cliffs are steep, the deep ditch is ten thousand feet, there is a husband when the pass, the trend of ten thousand people is beyond reach. In addition, a tourist area has been formed within seven kilometers around Yuxia Pass, with Jindeng Grottoes and Nantianmen in the north, Taohua Cave and Hongqi Canal in the east, and Huanglong Cave and Canglong Cave in the west.

At this time, Li Yunlong and others secretly went to the vicinity of the Hongqi Canal to rest and recuperate, in order to replenish their physical strength, and after eating and resting, they continued to go north after the soldiers of the army recovered their vitality.

After Li Yunlong received a telegram from Sun Desheng, commander of the cavalry company, he summoned Zhang Dabiao, He Yongjie, and others to gather together for an operational meeting.

I saw Li Yunlong raise the urgent telegram sent by Sun Desheng just now in his hand, and said to the big guy: "Brothers, the Japanese army in Luoyang sent troops north, and the number is a wing of the 37th Division of the 12th Army of the little devil, Sun Desheng observed that at least nearly 4,000 Japanese troops marched north to Mengjin Pass. After the cavalry company tentatively attacked Mengjin Pass, it soon discovered this huge Japanese force. Now the cavalry company has crossed north from the Mengjin ferry and is secretly chasing us! ”。

"Regiment commander, it seems that our new regiment has been a thorn in the side of the nearby Japanese army, and even the 12th Army of the little devil has cooperated with Shinozuka Yoshio's 1st Army to encircle and suppress us!" Zhang Dabiao laughed and said out loud, being able to be surrounded and suppressed by so many Japanese troops also shows the awesomeness of the new regiment.

He Yongjie, the commander of the fourth battalion, was worried: "Regiment commander, Sun Desheng's cavalry company will not be entangled by the Japanese army from Luoyang to the north!" An infantry wing of the little devils, there will definitely be cavalry units of the Japanese army in it! ”。

Sun Desheng mentioned in the telegram that the Japanese army from Luoyang to the north did not have a cavalry to chase them, I estimate that the Japanese army in Luoyang should have no cavalry to follow the north at this time! Not necessarily, though! ”

Li Yunlong thought about it and said, "Lao He reminded me a little bit!" ”。

Therefore, Li Yunlong immediately called the communication soldiers to send a report to Sun Desheng, and asked the cavalry to make a detour several times to see if there were any cavalry from the Japanese army going north from Luoyang. If not, go north to catch up with the main infantry of your own side. If you find a cavalry with little devils, then turn to the mountainous areas such as Xicheng Mountain, and drag and induce the Japanese troops from Luoyang to pursue the mountainous areas such as Xicheng Mountain.

The communications officer nodded and took the order.

And then, Li Yunlong continued to say to everyone: "Now that all the troops have been resting here near Yuxia Pass for half an hour, the soldiers' physical strength and vitality have recovered!" ”。

"Commander, the brothers have all recovered! Now continue to march north, there should be no problem! Now what do we do? Zhang Dabiao, the commander of the first battalion, said with a smile.

The others also said one after another, should the troops continue to go north next, or find a place to eat the garrison of the little devils?

I saw that Li Yunlong asked Wei Dayong and Monk Wei to spread out the map of Jin Province, and then pointed to it and said: "Now we are located on the east side of Yuxia Pass, fifty kilometers northwest is Pingshun County. It stands to reason that at this point we should be attacking smoothly. However, if the attack is smooth at that time, the Japanese troops re-stationed in Licheng, Hukou Pass, and Dongyang Pass will be on guard, and if we go north, the Japanese troops in these places will be dispatched, and it will be a little troublesome at that time! We're going to be flanked when we go north! ”。

"Captain, what do you mean?" Zhang Dabiao said loudly.

Li Yunlong pointed to the military map and said with a smile: "There are too few Japanese troops in Pingshun, and it is not worth attacking north!" We will continue to go north, from the area of Huangze Pass, through Niangzi Pass, and continue north to the Wutai Mountain area. In Wutai Mountain, the brothers have been out for a long time, and they must go back to Hengshan to rest for ten days and half a month! Moreover, if we want to expand the army and recuperate, we must reorganize the recruits in the base areas to report for duty and reorganize! ”。

"Understood, Captain!" Everyone looked at each other and smiled, and nodded in agreement.

Seeing that everyone agreed to the next steps, Li Yunlong waved his hand and said, "Okay, order the brothers, assemble and set off to the north!" Let's go! ”。

"Yes, Captain!" And all the people stood up and stood up.

Five or six minutes later, Li Yunlong continued to lead his troops to secretly go north from the vicinity of Yuxia Pass, along the eastern section of the Great Wall in Taihang Mountain.

At this time, Yoshio Shinozuka had already received a reply from the commander of the Japanese Twelfth Army, Eitaro Uchiyama, saying that he had ordered the 37th Division of Luoyang City to send a wing north to Mengjin Pass and cross the river to pursue Sun Desheng's cavalry troops.

"Yo Xi, it seems that Uchiyama Eitaro still understands the importance of the new group! This time, let's see how Li Yunlong escaped! By the way, have the troops from Qinghua Town and Tianjing Pass arrived in Miyang City? Yoshio Shinozuka sighed after receiving a call back from Eitaro Uchiyama, and then asked Taro Miyano, who had brought a telegram from the military headquarters of the Twelfth Army.

Miyano Taro shook his head and said, "Your Excellency, the troops of Qinghua Town and Tianjing Pass have arrived in Miyang. But not surprisingly, there is no new regiment in the city, according to the urgent telegram of the imperial army in Qinghua Town, the headquarters of the new regiment has been withdrawn from Miyang! Missing! ”。

"Forget it, now Li Yunlong is very likely to have led his troops to flee to the mountains of Xicheng Mountain and Wangwu Mountain. These mountainous areas are too big, and it is trivial to hide an army of less than 2,000 people! If we send troops into the mountains to encircle and suppress, I am afraid the effect will not be great! ”

Taro Miyano said in a condensed voice: "Your Excellency Commander, then what should we do?" His Majesty's next edict will come! At present, His Royal Highness Prince Hatohiko of the Asahika Palace has been cut off by Li Yunlong's department, and I believe that His Majesty the Emperor already knows at this time! If we can't catch and eliminate the new group of Li Yunlong, His Majesty the Emperor will definitely not forgive us at that time! ”。

Yoshio Shinozuka also had a headache when he heard this, but in fact, Yoshio Shinozuka was also full of hatred in his heart. You must know that the previous princes were actually big and useless people. What does it mean that Hirohito sent to Jin Province, how could Yoshio Shinozuka not know. Now they have all been killed by the new group, although Yoshio Shinozuka believes that he is responsible for the lack of safety. But he is also extremely dissatisfied with Hirohito's approach, but now Shinozuka Yoshio's crisis is even greater.

After all, the same Chinese general has already killed the four prince-level royal family members of the Wa Kingdom, and Yoshio Shinozuka bears a lot of responsibility.

"Order Qinghua Town and other troops close to Xicheng Mountain and Wangwu Mountain to stay still for the time being, and send reconnaissance troops into the mountain to investigate!" Yoshio Shinozuka waved his hand helplessly and ordered.

"All right, Your Excellency, Commander! Humble duty understands! Miyano Taro also said helplessly!
